Honey Sesame Chicken Salad Wraps – Broccoli slaw coated in a creamy honey sesame dressing. Wrapped with crispy chicken for a quick and easy meal.
I hope that you had a great weekend! Ours was full of activities, and lots of time with family. My parents were in town, so we spent time with them and my brother. We visited a pumpkin patch, did an escape room, and of course ate lots of yummy food! I surprised my dad with his favorite brownies when he arrived. So the rest of the weekend was just a bonus for him.
I am super excited to share this recipe with you today. It is from my good friend Amy’s new cookbook!! Amy. from the blog BellyFull, and I have been online friends for years, one of these days we will actually get to meet in person. She guest posted once before here, and you guys have loved the Oatmeal Cake recipe she shared. So I know you will be a big fan of these honey sesame chicken salad wraps as well.
The book is Good Fast Eats. And that is exactly what it is. Fast meals that you can make for your family, that taste amazing. You know I am all about quick and easy dinners, so I was super excited to see what recipes Amy came up with. I think I have about 20 pages with post its coming out, marking the pages. One of the things I really like about this book, is all of the meals are well balanced. They are full of veggies and nutritious meals that you can feel good about feeding to your family.
I can’t wait to try the Teriyaki Pork Stir Fry, Shrimp Satay Ramen, Tex-Mex Migas Waffles, and the Meatball Soup with Pearl Couscous. They are on the top of the list of must make soon. There is even a chapter on desserts with some super fudgy looking brownies.
To make these honey sesame chicken salad wraps you use store bought frozen chicken tenders. Just bake them according to the package directions. While they bake you mix together a few staple ingredients for the dressing. Then just assemble. So easy, but so good!! I made extra dressing that is in my fridge right now, so I can make these wraps for a quick lunch for myself during the week.

Amy @Belly Full says
Thank you so much for the wonderful book review, Erin! We have been at this a long time together, huh? I love what you chose to make out of the gate – my family absolutely loves these wraps. Great for grab and go, which we need so much these days!
Mrs Major Hoff says
I love a good wrap. I think my boys would really enjoy these. Thanks!
Nicole says
Can these be made the day before for lunch the next day?
Erin S says
They may get a little soggy if you fully assembled them. I would make the dressing, keep it in an air tight container and then just assemble (just putting dressing on the portion you are going to eat) in the morning or at lunch.
Alisa Ewert says

Lymda says
Would love to know tne nutritiinal value as I am a diabetic and must watch my food i take. Does the cookbook have tne nutritional values?
Erin S says
No the book does not include nutritional values. But you could use an online calculator to figure them out on this recipe or others you wanted to try.
Monica says
I would make using a dressing without mayo, grilled chicken and a low-carb wrap. Sounds delish!
Ashley @ Wishes & Dishes says
Made these last week. So good!
Debora Bryant says
Didn’t understand about the broccoli slaw. Do you just buy the broccoli and pour the dressing over it?
Erin S says
Yes, it says 2 cups of broccoli slaw. Just buy it in the produce section. Then one of the steps is toss the brocolli slaw with the dressing until well coated. You can also watch the video with shows you the steps.
Kristine says
Wow 2100 calories for 1 of these wraps? It doesn’t seem like they would be hat high!
Erin S says
Kristine,
Sorry that was for the whole recipe – it was not dividing it out into the # of servings. Corrected – thanks

I’ve been making these for my teenager to bring in her lunch to school. I warm up the tenders in the morning, let them cool down a bit. Wrap them in the tortilla in aluminum foil. I put the dressing in the bottom of a small container, with broccoli slaw on top. She shakes up the slaw and assembles at school. She’s a bit of a picky eater, particularly texture, and she has been happy with it so far! Thanks for the winner recipe!
